FAQs
How can I tell if my garbage disposal needs professional repair?
Warning signs include persistent clogs, humming without grinding, repeated tripped breakers, leaks beneath the sink, foul odors that won’t clear with cleaning, or loud grinding or metal-on-metal sounds. If you notice any of these issues, shut off the unit and call our Petros technicians to prevent motor burn-out or plumbing damage.
What brands and models of garbage disposals do your technicians service?
Our licensed plumbers are factory-trained on all major residential and light-commercial brands, including InSinkErator, Waste King, Moen, KitchenAid, GE, Whirlpool, and Badger. We also carry OEM and high-quality aftermarket parts on our trucks, enabling on-the-spot repairs for most ⅓- to 1-HP models installed in Petros homes.
Do you offer same-day garbage disposal repair in Petros?
Yes. Calls received before 2 p.m. Monday through Saturday qualify for same-day service at no extra charge. Our dispatch system locates the nearest available technician, and most repairs are completed within a single visit because we stock common motors, flywheels, splash guards, and seals on our vehicles.
Is it cheaper to repair or replace a faulty disposal?
If the motor is burned out or the housing is cracked, replacement is usually more cost-effective. However, issues like jammed impellers, worn splash guards, minor leaks at the sink flange, or faulty reset buttons can be repaired for significantly less than a new unit. During our diagnostic, we provide an up-front, flat-rate quote and explain your options so you can make an informed choice.
What should I do before the technician arrives?
1. Turn off the disposal and its dedicated circuit breaker. 2. Avoid using the sink to keep additional water from entering the unit. 3. Remove any large food particles from the drain opening with tongs (never your fingers). 4. Clear the area under the sink so the technician has room to work. These steps speed up the repair and keep you and your plumbing safe.
Are your garbage disposal repair specialists licensed and insured in Petros?
Absolutely. Every technician holds a Tennessee journeyman or master plumbing license, carries $2 million in liability insurance, and undergoes annual background checks and drug screening. We stand behind our work with a one-year labor warranty and manufacturer-backed parts warranties for total peace of mind.
